BuzzB Posted March 11, 2017 #1 Share Posted March 11, 2017 My sister and I enjoyed out 1st river cruise w/Viking last May. Is there a similar river cruise line with bikes AND great price?? $3K for 2 people including airfare yet there were no bicycles available. Perhaps we'll overlook since we can't seen to beat the price!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMA may not beat the price (hard to compare without knowing your destinations, trip duration, etc.) but they will offer bikes, great food, knowledgeable tour guides and well appointed ships with friendly staffs.

Sent from my iPad using Forums Thanks!! Looking at the Danube for 8 nights w/Viking. Runs @ $3,200 For two. Whereas, AMA runs $3K pp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuelScience Posted March 11, 2017 #4 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Take a look at Vantage Travel. They carry a few bikes on board, and for $150 extra, you can reserve a bike for the entire week. Based on our one Vantage cruise, they weren't used at all. Vantage does not use travel agents, so you have to go direct to their web site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nancyevans Posted March 11, 2017 #5 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Be certain to look at what other expenses are included or excluded. By the time you do your calculations, you may find AMA is cheaper. Ex. Transfers to and from the ship, beverages, tours, bike rental Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare notamermaid Posted March 12, 2017 #6 Share Posted March 12, 2017 BuzzB, Avalon looks a little more expensive, but this is actually a "biking" river cruise: http://www.avalonwaterways.com/river-cruise/active-discovery-on-the-danube-westbound/wbl/ An alternative might be: http://www.croisieurope.travel/en-gb/cruises/biking-along-danube CroisiEurope have a great reputation in Europe, however luxury amenities "do not match" what you might know from an American cruise line. As nancyevans has mentioned, you will need to check carefully what is included in the price and what you would like to have included. Have fun planning. notamermaid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
